Caregiver Coaching
"Should I take away his phone as punishment for not cleaning his room?"
"I'm caring for both my mom and my teen and between the two, I feel constantly disrespected and have zero time for myself."
"I'm watching my mother dig her own grave with her dietary and lifestyle choices. I'm supposed to be caring for her but I don't want to rob her of her independent choices."
"I caught my child stealing from me and now I'm considering calling the cops on them."

When you're drowning, it's tempting to grab onto the nearest large object that floats by. Caregivers are constantly inundated with well-meaning advice from friends and family. Some of this advice is helpful, some benign, and some can be downright harmful.

Guidance that omits you and your loved one's unique needs, or focuses solely on short-term solutions at the cost of your relationship is damaging in the long run. Well-meaning mothers-in-law and best friends might be giving you advice such as, "take the door off the hinges, until he starts...," "if she's hungry enough, she'll eat it," "cut the wifi until he...," etc. While some of these tactics might "work" in the short term, they will have long-term consequences. Caregivers who rely on punitive and coercive control tactics risk eroding trust within the relationship. There IS a better way to achieve lasting behavioral results while keeping your relationship healthy.
